This command will make a simple object from the specified limb.

MAKE OBJECT FROM LIMB Object Number, Second Object, Limb Number

MAKE OBJECT FROM LIMB Object Number, Second Object, Limb Number, All Limbs Flag

Object Number

Integer
The new object number

Second Object

Integer
The object we will get the limb from

Limb Number

Integer
The limb number

All Limbs Flag

Integer
An optional parameter of zero will copy just a single limb from the object, whereas a value of one will copy the limb, its orientation data and all limbs linked that limb as well

This command does not return a value.

You can use this command to remove a limb element such as an arm or gun from an object and create a new object using just this element. Ideal for deconstructing loaded models and using their elements for other uses. An optional parameter of zero will copy just a single limb from the object, whereas a value of one will copy the limb, its orientation data and all limbs linked that limb as well. It is important to note than when you extract a limb from an object, any shared scaling or rotating from the parent frames will be lost, and you will have the pure frame, without any shared influences.
